Piping & Repiping in San Jose

Installing New Piping & Fittings for Your Home

The piping in your home is what carries water to your faucets, appliances, and fixtures. When this piping is damaged or old, it can cause a number of problems. Older pipes are more likely to leak or burst, which can cause water damage to your home and result in expensive repairs. If your home's pipes are more than 50 years old, it may be time to install new ones.

At Royal Plumbing, we offer San Jose piping and repiping services. We can help you choose the right piping material for your project and install it properly so that it will last for decades to come.

Types of Piping Materials

There are a number of different materials that can be used for piping, including copper, steel, and polybutylene. Each material has advantages and disadvantages, and the best material to use for your project will depend on a number of factors, including the environment your home is in, the location of the pipe, and the function of the pipe.

Here are some of the pros and cons of the most common piping materials:

• Copper: Copper is a popular material for residential piping because it is durable and easy to work with. However, it is expensive and may be difficult to work with if you are trying to install it yourself.
• Steel: Steel is a good choice for piping that is in direct contact with the ground, like water and sewer lines. It is also relatively inexpensive and easy to work with.
• Polybutylene: This material is commonly used for residential piping because it is inexpensive and easy to install. It is also resistant to corrosion and can last for decades if it is installed properly.

Why You Should Have Your Plumbing System Repiped

When your piping is more than 50 years old, it may be time to consider repiping. If you have pipes that are made of materials that are toxic (such as lead), it is especially important to have your pipes replaced.

If you are unsure whether your piping needs to be replaced, call our plumbers. We can come to your home or business and inspect your piping, taking into account its age, material, and current condition. We can let you know if your piping needs to be replaced or repaired.
